Ford Puma heater only HOT AIR ONLY! - Help!!!!?

Hi,

Im a student and flat out of dosh. My car is running on fumes!

Recently the Heater blows out hot air even when switched off! The air is hot enough to circumvent the Air conditioning.

What could possibly be wrong? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated...

Kind Regards.

Tough, it may be the electronic control panel that sits behind the heater controls, if it is, the replacement including labour will cost you several hundred pounds. The first thing to do is to to test the valve that you get to from the engine bay which can be done by removing the wire conection and testing it to see if it shunts open and closed. If it does the valve will not need replacing (if it doesn't you will need to buy a new one from eBay - about £14.00), if not, you are in trouble.
